Moussif, H: Deployment of low-level sensor/actor for securit

The USB is specified to be an industry-standard extension to the PC architecture, in my Work, I will check the security of USB standards, I will build a second test-platform to test and analyze the USB interface and the USB communication, in the end I will estimate the complexity of extending the two platforms in one test-platform. Sensor and actor for USB interface will be added so that the actor operates on the USB device which is a black-box. The sensor intercepts the communication between the actor and the device. The communication will be monitored via the host in the Middle, so here the sensor and the actor doesn t satisfy the semantic of sensors like pressure or temperature sensor which are well known in the industry, but this scene is simply a construction of software and hardware known in cryptography by Man In The Middle attack. This will yield conclusions for security vulnerability of the USB- Interface, furthermore case scenarios will be discussed, amongst other hardware interfaces like PCI, PCI express and the IEEE 1394.
